Recent developments regarding the estate of Marcos Matsunaga, the Yoki heir killed in 2012, have focused on both his hidden wealth and the legal settlement of his assets.

Reports emerged alleging that Matsunaga maintained a clandestine export company generating approximately R$ 25 million annually, significantly inflating his wealth beyond his declared executive salary. Additionally, the luxury São Paulo penthouse where his murder occurred has been placed on the market for R$ 2.8 million, a price roughly 30% below its estimated value. The property features a hidden panic room with armored doors and independent climate control, which has reportedly deterred some potential buyers.

In legal proceedings, the estate—represented by his father, Mitsuo Matsunaga—has moved to settle financial holdings. Following the unarchiving of the probate process, judicial authorization allowed for the redemption of various investment funds and the closure of a Santander bank account in São Paulo. A judge deemed the accounting of these transfers regular and subsequently ordered the case to be archived again. Due to judicial secrecy, the specific values of the redeemed investments remain undisclosed.
